To be a global leader in fostering support for the conservation of the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea.

The Texas State Aquarium is a private, not-for-profit organization that receives no city, state or federal funding for its operations. The Aquarium relies on general admissions, memberships, retail sales, event rentals and the generous support from donors to maintain its operations.
